Why do we need improved cultivars for vegetable oil extraction?

Limited land availability and growing demands for vegetable oils call for the development of improved cultivars for harnessing higher yields as well as more efficient oil extraction technologies to augment oil recovery from different oilseed crops without compromising with the oil quality.

How much oil can be extracted from vegetable oil crops?

Table 1. Extraction of vegetable edible oils from oil crops. Maximum oil extraction yield = 55.47%. T = 60¨C65 ¡ãC, Solvent = n-hexane.

Which methods are used in vegetable oil extraction?

From the preceding analysis, it is observed that recent research on vegetable oil extractions has been focused more on the assisted methods (microwave and ultrasound) and supercritical fluid extraction compared to the conventional solvent and mechanical extraction methods.

How is vegetable oil extracted?

Vegetable oils are therefore extracted close to the consumer. As a pre-treatment, oilseeds are cleaned, possibly de-hulled, reduced, heat-treated, and flocculated. The oil of all oil fruit can be press-extracted; oilseeds can be solvent extracted. The press and extraction meal from seed oil production is usually used as fodder.
